Don't let the sun beat down upon my face
And stars to fill my dream.
I am a traveler of both time and space,
To be where I have been.
T' sit with elders of the gentle race
This world has seldom seen.
Th' talk of days for which they sit and wait
All will be revealed.
~ Kashmir

Wanna tell you about the girl I love
My she looks so fine
She's the only one that I been dreamin' of
Maybe someday she will be all mine
I wanna tell her that I love her so
I thrill with her every touch
I need to tell her she's the only one I really love.

I got a woman, wanna ball all day
I got a woman, she won't be true, no
I got a woman, stay drunk all the time
I said I got a little woman and she won't be true.

Hey Hey What Can I Do

In the bars, with the men who play guitars
Singin', drinkin' and rememberin' the times
My little lover does a midnight shift
She's followed around all the time
I guess there's just one thing a-left for me to do
Gonna pack my bags and move on my way
Cause I got a worried mind
Sharin' what I thought was mine
Gonna leave her where the guitars play.

Woman, woman, I know, I know it's good to have you back again.
And I know that one day baby, it's gonna really grow, yes it is.
We gonna go walkin through the park every day.
Hear what I say, every day/Baby, its really growin, you made me happy every single day
But now I've got to go away.

Babe I'm Gonna Leave You

Been dazed and confused for so long, it's not true.
A-wanted a woman, never bargained for you.
Lots of people talkin', few of them know
Soul of a woman was created below.

Every day I work so hard, bringin' home my hard-earned pay.
Try to love you, baby, but you push me away.
Don't know where you're goin', only know just where you've been.
Sweet little baby, I want you again.

Dazed and Confused

Lyin', cheatin', hurtin, that's all you seem to do,
Messin' around, every guy in town.
Puttin' me down for thinkin' of someone new.
Always the same, playin' your game.
Drive me insane, trouble's gonna come to you.
One of these days, and it won't be long,
You'll look for me, but, baby, I'll be gone.

Hey, fellas, have ya heard the news?
Ya know that Annie's back in town.
It won't take long, just watch and see
All the fellas lay their money down.
Her style is new but the face is the same as it was so long ago.
But from her eyes a different smile like of the one who knows.

People talkin' all around 'bout the way you left me flat,
I don't care what the people say, I know where their jive is at.
One thing I do have on my mind, if you can clarify please do:
It's the way you call me by another guy's name when I try to make love to you.

Heartbreaker

With a purple umbrella and a fifty cent hat,
Livin', lovin', she's just a woman.
Missus cool rides out in her aged Cadillac,
Livin', lovin', she's just a woman.

Alimony, alimony payin' your bills,
Livin', lovin', she's just a woman.
When your conscience hits, you knock it back with pills.
Livin', lovin', she's just a woman.

Living Loving Maid (She's Just a Woman)

Leaves are fallin' all around, time I was on my way.
Thanks to you, I'm much obliged for such a pleasant stay.
But now it's time for me to go, the autumn moon lights my way.
For now I smell the rain, and with it, pain.
And it's headed my way.
Aw, sometimes I grow so tired,
But I know I've got one thing I got to do.

Got no time to for spreadin' roots, The time has come to be gone.
And to' our health we drank a thousand times, it's time to ramble on.

Ramble On

A-ramble on, and now's the time, the time is now.
Sing my song, I'm goin' 'round the world, I gotta find my girl.
On my way, I've been this way ten years to the day.
Ramble on, gotta find the queen of all my dreams.

Ramble On

Mine's a tale that can't be told, my freedom I hold dear.
How years ago in days of old, when magic filled the air.
T'was in the darkest depths of Mordor, I met a girl so fair.
But Gollum and the evil one, crept up and slipped away with her, her, her....yeah.

Ramble On

Try to tell you baby, what you tryin' to do?
Tryin' to love me baby, love some other man too.
Bring it on home.

Ah, ah,
We come from the land of the ice and snow,
From the midnight sun where the hot springs blow.
The hammer of the gods, we'll drive our ships to new lands,
To fight the horde, singing and crying: Valhalla, I am coming!
On we sweep with threshing oar,
Our only goal will be the western shore.

Working from seven to eleven every night,
It really makes life a drag, I don't think that's right.
I've really been the best, the best of fools, I did what I could, yeah.
'Cause I love you, baby, How I love you, darling, How I love you, baby.
I'm in love with you, girl, little girl.
But baby, since I've been loving you, yeah,
I'm about to lose my worried mind.

Do you remember mama, when I knocked upon your door?
I said you had the nerve to tell me you didn't want me no more, yeah.
I open my front door, I hear my back door slam.
You know I must have one of them new fangled, new fangled back doors man.

Since I've Been Loving You

As I walk down the highway all I do is sing this song
And a train that's passin' my way helps the rhythm move along.
There is no doubt about the words are clear,
The voice is strong, is oh so strong.

Hangman, hangman, hold it a little while,
Think I see my friends coming, Riding a many mile.
Friends, did you get some silver?
Did you get a little gold?
What did you bring me, my dear friends, To keep me from the Gallows Pole?
What did you bring me to keep me from the Gallows Pole?

And it's whispered that soon, if we all call a tune,
Then the Piper will lead us to reason.
And a new day will dawn for those who stand long,
And the forests will echo with laughter.
~ Stairway to Heaven

Hey, hey, mama, said the way you move, gonna make you sweat, gonna make you groove.
Oh, oh, child, way you shake that thing, gonna make you burn, gonna make you sting.
Hey, hey, baby, when you walk that way, watch your honey drip, can't keep away.

Didn't take too long 'fore I found out, what people mean by down and out.
Spent my money, took my car, started telling her friends she wants to be a star.
I don't know but I been told, a big-legged woman ain't got no soul.

It's been a long time since I rock and rolled,
It's been a long time since I did the Stroll.
Ooh, let me get it back, let me get it back,
Let me get it back, baby, where I come from.
It's been a long time, been a long time,
Been a long lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely time. Yes it has.

Hoh, it's been so long since we walked in the moonlight
A-making vows that just can't work right.
Haw-haw, yeah, open your arms, open your arms, open your arms,
Baby let my love come runinng in, a-yeah.

Rock and Roll

The Queen of Light took her bow and then she turned to go,
The Prince of Peace embraced the gloom and walked the night alone.

The apples of the valley hold the seeds of happiness;
The ground is rich from tender care, which they do not forget, no, no.
Dance in the dark night, sing to the morning light.

The Battle of Evermore

The pain of war cannot exceed the woe of aftermath.
The drums will shake the castle wall, the Ringwraiths ride in black (ride on).

The Battle of Evermore

There's a lady who's sure all that glitters is gold
And she's buying a stairway to heaven.
When she gets there she knows, if the stores are all closed
With a word she can get what she came for.
Ooh, ooh, and she's buying a stairway to heaven.

There's a sign on the wall but she wants to be sure
'Cause you know sometimes words have two meanings
In a tree by the brook, there's a songbird who sings
Sometimes all of our thoughts are misgiven.
It makes me wonder.

Stairway to Heaven

There's a feeling I get when I look to the west,
And my spirit is crying for leaving.
In my thoughts I have seen rings of smoke through the trees,
And the voices of those who stand looking.
And it makes me wonder,
Really makes me wonder.

Stairway to Heaven

And it's whispered that soon if we all call a tune,
Then the Piper will lead us to reason.
And a new day will dawn for those who stand long,
And the forests will echo with laughter.

Stairway to Heaven

If there's a bustle in your hedgerow, don't be alarmed now,
It's just a spring clean for the May Queen.
Yes, there are two paths you can go by, but in the long run
There's still time to change the road you're on.
And it makes me wonder.

Stairway to Heaven

Your head is humming and it won't go, in case you don't know.
The Piper's calling you to join him.
Dear lady, can't you hear the wind blow, and did you know?
Your stairway lies on the whispering wind.

Stairway to Heaven

And as we wind on down the road
Our shadows taller than our soul.
There walks a lady we all know
Who shines white light and wants to show
How everything still turns to gold.
And if you listen very hard
The tune will come to you at last.
When all are one and one is all
To be a rock and not to roll.

Stairway to Heaven

Walkin' in the park just the other day, baby,
What do you, what do you think I saw?
Crowds of people sittin' on the grass with flowers in their hair said,
Hey, Boy, do you wanna score?"
And you know how it is
I really don't know what time it was, woh, oh, oh so I asked them if I could stay a while.

If you go down in the streets today, Baby, you better,
You better open your eyes.
Folk down there really don't care, really don't care, don't care, really don't
Which, which way the pressure lies,
So I've decided what I'm gonna do now.
So I'm packing my bags for the Misty Mountains
Where the spirits go now,
Over the hills where the spirits fly, ooh.
I really don't know.

Misty Mountain Hop

And when the owls cry in the night
Oh, Baby, Baby, when the pines begin to cry.
Baby, Baby, Baby, how do you feel?
If the river runs dry, baby, how do you feel?

Spent my days with a woman unkind,
Smoked my stuff and drank all my wine.
Made up my mind to make a new start,
Going to California with an aching in my heart.
Someone told me there's a girl out there
With love in her eyes and flowers in her hair.

Took my chances on a big jet plane,
Never let them tell you that they're all the same.
The sea was red and the sky was grey,
Wondered how tomorrow could ever follow today.
The mountains and the canyons started to tremble and shake
As the children of the sun began to awake.

Seems like the wrath of the gods got a punch on the nose and it started to flow, I think I might be sinking.
Throw me a line if I reach it in time, I'll meet you up there where the path runs straight and high.

Going to California

To find a queen without a king,
They say she plays guitar and cries and sings... la la la
Ride a white mare in the footsteps of dawn
Tryin' to find a woman who's never, never, never been born.
Standing on a hill in my mountain of dreams,
Telling myself it's not as hard, hard, hard as it seems.

Going to California

Mean old levee taught me to weep and moan;
Got what it takes to make a mountain man leave his home.

If it keeps on rainin', levee's goin' to break,
When the levee breaks I'll have no place to stay.

When the Levee Breaks

Don't it make you feel bad when you're tryin' to find your way home,
You don't know which way to go?

When the Levee Breaks

Cryin' won't help you, prayin' won't do you no good.
Now, cryin' won't help you, prayin' won't do you no good.
When the levee breaks, mama, you got to move.

When the Levee Breaks

All last night sat on the levee and moaned;
All last night sat on the levee and moaned.
Thinkin' about my baby and my happy home,
Going, going to Chicago.. Going to Chicago.. Sorry but I can't take you..Going down.. going down now.. going down...

This is the springtime of my loving - the second season I am to know
You are the sunlight in my growing—so little warmth I've felt before.
It isn't hard to feel me glowing—I watched the fire that grew so low.

These are the seasons of emotion and like the winds they rise and fall.
This is the wonder of devotion—I seek the torch we all must hold.
This is the mystery of the quotient:
- Upon us all, upon us all a little rain must fall...It's just a little rain...

The Rain Song

Hey lady—you got the love I need
Maybe more than enough.
Oh darling, darling, darling walk a while with me.
You've got so much...so much...

Many have I loved, many times been bitten
Many times I've gazed along the open road.
Many times I've lied - Many times I've listened
Many times I've wondered how much there is to know.
Many dreams come true and some have silver linings
I live for my dream and a pocketful of gold.

Over the Hills and Far Away

Many is a word that only leaves you guessin';
Guessin' 'bout a thing you really ought to know.
You really ought to know.
I really ought to know.

Over the Hills and Far Away

Dancing days are here again as the summer evenings grow
I got my flower, I got my power, I got a woman who knows.

Close the doors, put out the light
You know they won't be home tonight.
The snow falls hard and don't you know
The winds of Thor are blowing cold.
They're wearing steel that's bright and true,
They carry news that must get through.

Walking side by side with death,
The devil mocks their every step.
The snow drives back the foot that's slow,
The dogs of doom are howling more.

No Quarter

Singing in the sunshine, laughing in the rain,
Hitting on the moonshine, rocking in the brain.
Got no time to pack my bag, my foot's outside the door,
Got a date, can't be late for the high hopes hailla ball.

Singing to an ocean, I can hear the ocean's roar,
Play for free, play for me and play a whole lot more.
Singing about the good things and the sun that lights the day,
Used to sing on the mountains,
Has the ocean lost its way?

And I see them in the streets,
And I see them in the field,
And I hear them shouting under my feet.
And I know it's got to be real.
Oh, Lord, deliver me.
All the wrong I've done,
You can deliver me, Lord.
I only wanted to have some fun.

In My Time of Dying

From the houses of the holy, we can watch the white doves go.
From the door comes Satan's daughter, and it only goes to show,
You know.

So the world is spinning faster
Are you dizzy when you're stoned?
Let the music be your master.
Will you heed the master's call?
Oh-whoa-oh, Satan an' man
Said there ain't no use in cryin'.
'Cause it will only, only drive you mad.
Does it hurt to hear them lyin'?
Was this the only world you had?

Don't let the sun beat down upon my face
And stars to fill my dream.
I am a traveler of both time and space,
To be where I have been.
T' sit with elders of the gentle race
This world has seldom seen.
Th' talk of days for which they sit and wait
All will be revealed.

All I see turns to brown, as the sun burns the ground.
And my eyes fill with sand, as I scan this wasted land.
Tryin' to find....Tryin' to find where I've been.

Kashmir

Oh, pilot of the storm who leaves no trace
Like thoughts inside a dream.
Heed the path that led me to that place,
Yellow desert stream.
My Shangri-La beneath the summer moon
Will return again.
Sure as the dust that floats b'hind you
When movin' through Kashmir.

Kashmir

Oh, father of the four winds, fill my sails, across the sea of years
With no provision but an open face, along the straits of fear.

Kashmir

Then as it was, then again it will be
An' though the course may change sometimes
Rivers always reach the sea
Blind stars of fortune, each have several rays
On the wings of maybe, down in birds of prey
Kind of makes me feel sometimes, didn't have to grow
But as the eagle leaves the nest, it's got so far to go.

Oh, to sail away, to sandy lands and other days.
Oh, to touch the dream, hides inside and never seen.

Achilles Last Stand

It was an April morning when they told us we should go
As I turn to you, you smiled at me.
How could we say no?

Achilles Last Stand

Sending off a glancing kiss, to those who claim they know.
Below the streets that steam and hiss,
The devil's in his hole.

Achilles Last Stand

Into the sun the south the north, at last the birds have flown.
The shackles of commitment fell, in pieces on the ground.
Oh to ride the wind, to tread the air above the din.
Oh to laugh aloud, dancing as we fought the crowd.

Achilles Last Stand

If one bell should ring,
In celebration for a king,
So fast the heart should beat,
As proud the head with heavy feet.
Days went by when you and I, bathed in eternal summer's glow.
As far away and distant
Our mutual child did grow.
Oh the sweet refrain,
Soothes the soul and calms the pain.
Oh Albion remains, sleeping now to rise again.
Wandering & wandering, what place to rest the search?
The mighty arms of Atlas, hold the heavens from the earth.

Achilles Last Stand

You said I was the only, oh, oh
With my lemon in your hand.
Exhibition is your habit,
Emotions second hand, oh, oh.
Had to pull away to save me;
Maybe next time around.
And she said, don't you wannit?
Don't you want coca coca cocaine?
Hadn't planned to, could not stand to
Try it, friend, yeah, na, na, yeah.

How come twenty four hours
Baby sometimes seem to slip into days?
Oh twenty-four hours
Baby sometimes seem to slip into days.
When a minute seems like a lifetime,
Ooh baby when I feel this way.
Sittin, lookin at the clock.
Oh time moves so slow.
I've been watchin' for the hands to move
Until I just can't look no more.
How come twenty four hours
Baby sometimes seems to slip into days?

Oh it's simple, all the pain that you go through,
You can turn away from fortune, fortune, 'cause that's all that's left to you.
It's lonely at the bottom, man, it's dizzy at the top,
But if you're standing in the middle, ain't no way you're gonna stop.

In the Evening

Well there's a light in your eye that keeps shining
Like a star that can't wait for the night
I hate to think I've been blinded baby
Why can't I see you tonight?

Now I will stand in the rain on the corner
I'll watch the people go shuffling downtown.
Another ten minutes, no longer
And then I'm turning around.
The clock on the wall's moving slower;
My heart it sinks to the ground.
And the storm that I thought would blow over
Clouds the light of the love that I found.

Fool In the Rain

Now my body is starting to quiver
And the palms of my hands getting wet.
I've got no reason to doubt you baby,
It's all a terrible mess.
I'll run in the rain till I'm breathless.
When I'm breathless I'll run till I drop, hey.
The thoughts of a fool's kind of careless;
I'm just a fool waiting on the wrong block, oh yeah.
Light of the love that I found...

Fool In the Rain

For many hours and days that pass ever soon
The tides have caused the flame to dim.
At last the arm is straight, the hand to the loom.
Is this to end or just begin?
All of my love, all of my love, All of my love to you.

It starts out like a murmur
Then it grows like thunder
Until it bursts inside of you
Try to hold it steady
Wait until you're ready
Any second now will do
Throw the door wide open
Not a word is spoken
Anything that you want to do
Ya know, ya know, ya know...
